Abstract

Stacks are described as sheaves of groupoids G satisfying an effective descent condition, or equivalently such that the classifying object BG satisfies descent.The set of simplicial sheaf homotopy classes [ * , BG] is identified with equivalence classes of acyclic homotopy colimits fibred over BG, generalizing the classical relation between torsors and non-abelian cohomology.Group actions give rise to quotient stacks, which appear as parameter spaces for the separable transfer construction in special cases.
